All the gods of agriculture gathered in the main hall after packing up their things.
At this time, the main hall was silent, and many agricultural gods looked around with sad eyes and reluctant expressions.
This Temple of the God of Agriculture, standing tall in the divine world, had its moments of glory.
I remember when Zeus defeated Odin with difficulty and ascended the throne of God King for the first time.
The entire God Realm was devastated and in ruins, and many temples suffered heavy losses in that battle.
Each temple requires a large amount of food to multiply believers and restore strength. .??.
At that time, the Temple of the God of Agriculture could be said to be held by many temples like stars holding the moon.
Demeter only needs a word, and countless temples will help.
Not to mention the masters of other temples, even Zeus tried to please Demeter in every possible way. He came to Demeter every day to drink tea and chat, and helped with the farming. In the end, he got his wish and developed a relationship with Demeter.
They once thought that the Temple of the God of Agriculture would always stand in the divine world and be immortal forever.
However, unexpectedly, things slowly changed.
Thanks to the hard work of the Temple of the God of Agriculture, a large amount of grain was produced, and the followers of the gods multiplied rapidly. The entire God Realm soon returned to prosperity, and the originally empty warehouses of many temples were filled with grain.
At this point, the attitudes of many temples have quietly changed, and even Zeus stopped visiting frequently.
Even when Hades kidnapped Persephone, Zeus remained indifferent.
If it had been back when the stars were holding the moon, all the temples would have organized themselves to attack the underworld long ago without Demeter's request.
After that incident, many temples seemed to have glimpsed Zeus's thoughts, and they were no longer polite to the Temple of Saturn, and repeatedly intimidated the Temple of Saturn to purchase grain at low prices.
Some temples even began to plan to take over the Temple of the God of Agriculture for their own use, and let the gods of agriculture become their own pallu from now on.
Only then did Demeter understand that the wolf-hearted Zeus was not in love with her at all, but simply wanted to control herself, stabilize the Temple of Saturn, and let the Temple of Saturn work hard to cultivate the land for him, the god-king.
So that the divine world can prosper again.
As for who the Temple of the God of Agriculture belongs to, and whether it will become a farm tool for others, Zeus himself does not care. He only needs the God of Agriculture to cultivate the land well in the divine world.
Fortunately, Demeter and Aoki Temple hit it off.
The Aoki Temple was in urgent need of plants and could not just watch the Temple of the God of Agriculture be dominated by other temples. The God of Agriculture also restrained the God of the Aoki a little, and both temples were willing to cooperate. This allowed the Temple of the God of Agriculture to be safe and sound in the divine world.
And then, the war broke out...
"I really didn't expect that we would reach this stage." An elderly god of agriculture sighed reluctantly.
A group of elder gods of agriculture sighed. They built this temple with their own hands, carefully selected the location, cultivated the land, and cared for it carefully.
They thought this would be their forever home.
But I didn't expect that it would fall today.
"To be honest, we have never thought that it might fall... Odin, Titans, and demons are all powerful enemies."
"But I never expected that it would fall into the hands of many temples and the God King."
The eyes of the young gods were equally sad. They did not build this hall themselves, but they have been living here since they were born.
But now, he is like a lost dog!
But the most reluctant thing is...
Many agricultural gods raised their heads in unison and looked outside the main hall.
Outside the main hall, there are waves of wheat and swaying fruit trees.
That is a crop they cultivated carefully.
As gods of agriculture, they were busy there day and night. Just watching the wheat seedlings ripening and the fruit trees swaying, they felt full of joy.
"What did I do wrong... I just want to plant the land with peace of mind, watch the fruits ripen, and experience the joy of harvest."
"Why on earth can't the God Realm tolerate us? We are clearly not aggressive! We just want a piece of land for farming..."
Demeter sighed, interrupted the sighs of many gods of agriculture, and said in a deep voice: "Okay, don't be sad about the spring and regret the autumn. Grab all the useful things and let's escape at night."
"Lord God, are you really going to leave like this?" A god of agriculture sighed: "I have taken care of this endless farmland with my own hands... It's ready to be harvested right now!"
“We really can’t bear to part with it!”
"There is nothing I can do if I don't want to leave it," Demeter sighed: "I can't take this endless farm with me! Even if we start harvesting in advance now and the yield is reduced, this endless farm is so vast. Even if we are the gods of agriculture, there will be only one light every year.
It takes half a month to harvest!”
"Lord God, we can't just take advantage of the Aoki Temple in vain!" The deputy temple master gritted his teeth and said: "They forced our God of Agriculture Temple to flee like a bereaved dog, and they lost the entire endless pastoral for nothing? How can there be such a good thing! That's what we are waiting for.
It’s the result of hard work!”
"that is!"
"It's better to set fire to it before leaving and destroy it!"
"If you ask me, I should set fire to it! When the entire God Realm is hungry, they will naturally know how important my God of Agriculture Temple is!"
But some gods of agriculture sighed: "Who is going to put it? You are going to put it? After all, this is the food we grew ourselves..."
As soon as these words came out, the gods of agriculture, who had originally had fierce eyes, were stunned for a moment and looked at the endless fields outside the palace.
Bunches of vigorously growing wheat seedlings swayed in the wind, and fruit branches and leaves fluttered, as if they were warmly greeting the god of agriculture who took care of them.
The gods of agriculture can even feel the gratitude and joy radiating from this field.
"Oh, I can't do it. Mr. Deputy Palace Master, you were the most determined just now. How about you go ahead?"
"This..." The deputy palace master rubbed his hands, "This... ugh!"
For a moment, many agricultural gods looked at each other, unable to take action.
The endless fields were cultivated by them through hard work, and this land was cultivated inch by inch with hoes and sickles. Every grain of soil was nourished by their divine power, turning it from barren to fertile.
During these long years, every day, the Gods of Agriculture worked hard to water the crops so that they could eat and drink happily. Every night, the Gods of Agriculture worked all night long to prevent too many birds from disturbing the sleeping wheat seedlings.
.
Every inch of land has their sweat.
Every plant is like a child, watching them grow up with my own eyes.
They could even hear the words of the wheat seedlings. The breeze blew and the waves of wheat clattered, just like countless children laughing and saying thank you.
"Hello, daddy", "Grandpa is here again", "Daddy, daddy, thirsty, water, water" are all heard in my ears.
Listen to my father's voice.
Are these wheat seedlings that are growing up, not the children of the God of Agriculture?
This is the land they have cultivated for generations!
How can any farmer set fire to his own field?
"That's all, that's all." The deputy temple master waved his hands and said helplessly: "Even if it's a bargain for the Aoki Temple... I don't know if they can harvest or farm... If we leave, they won't want to
This land was barren.”
Another God of Agriculture smiled: "It's okay, Deputy Palace Master, I just wrote a planting guide in the room and left it on the table to teach them how to sow and harvest, watering every three days, fertilizing every seven days, half a month
Once the insects are removed..."
Lin Fan was extremely weird inside.
This god of agriculture really loves the fields.
After driving them out and taking away the world, they even wrote a planting guide to teach you how to take care of it...
This is simply a qualified pallu!
No wonder many temples covet you!
However, Lin Fan could never sit back and watch Endless Pastoral fall into the hands of the Aoki Temple.
These are all from Daxia!
Just when many agricultural gods were about to give up on their endless fields, Lin Fan said in a deep voice: "Lord God, I have a chicken!"
"You have another chicken?" Demeter was stunned for a moment and looked at Lin Fan in disbelief: "Elder Bai Xiaoqi, you are always reckless, what happened today?"
Elder Bai Xiaoqi was never like this before.
Why do you suddenly feel like a different person?
"Lord God, although this subordinate is careless on weekdays, he is actually well-read in poetry and books, and he has strategies. It's just that I keep a low profile and don't talk about it." Lin Fan boasted without blushing or heartbeat.
Anyway, it's Bai Qi bragging, what does it have to do with Lin Fan and me?
"I never noticed that you are so resourceful. You hide it too deeply... Tell me, what can you do?" Demeter said quickly.
"It would be a waste to lose it, and it would be a pity to burn it... Why don't we sell it directly!" Lin Fan said solemnly.
"sell away!"
Demeter's eyes lit up.
It seems like this is a really good idea!
"This is a great plan! Since they are all going to run away, why not just sell it! The fields can't be taken away, but the divine crystal can be taken away!"
"How come we can't think of such a solution?"
All the gods of agriculture also looked at him suddenly.
It's not their fault. Normally, these agricultural gods don't listen to anything outside the window and just focus on farming.
My brain is a bit rigid. Everyone is used to the Star Chamber of Commerce sending people to harvest after the harvest is over every year.
Farmers are not good at business.
For a simple farmer, when encountering this situation, the first reaction is to "harvest in advance" rather than "sell".
"I made a mistake when I came here before, Elder Bai Xiaoqi. If we can get an extra divine crystal in this crisis, our God of Agriculture Temple will have more hope of rising in the future!" Demeter couldn't hide her excitement, "I'm waiting for the God of Agriculture.
I have always been stupid, but I didn’t expect that there would be such a heaven-defying evildoer like Elder Bai Xiaoqi! From today on, you will be the number one resource person in our God of Agriculture Temple!”
"Lord God, you praise me." Lin Fan bowed respectfully.
Bai Qi, who was wielding a sickle in Daxia, sneezed.
What? I became the number one resourceful person? Me?
"I'll contact the other temples right now!" Without further ado, and without having time to go there in person, Demeter immediately took out her communication bracelet and dialed the communication number.
Since it was business, Demeter's first thought was the Star Chamber of Commerce.
The communication rang for a full two minutes before being picked up late.
"Demeter..." The sweet voice was a little tired: "What are you doing with me this late at night?"
"Miss Xingye," Demeter said in a deep voice, "I have something to do... Could you please collect the food now?"
"Don't you still have a few days to mature?"
"Something happened... We and the Aoki Temple are going to fight..."
"Haha, are you kidding?" Miss Xingye chuckled, "The entire God Realm knows that your two temples are as close as one family. Zeus even praised you last time...why did they start fighting?"
"That's not the point," Demeter said hurriedly: "Now we are in a hurry to run away and must deal with the food quickly."
"Why don't you collect the food directly, otherwise it will fall into the hands of the Aoki Temple..."
"We, the Xingchen Chamber of Commerce, don't care who we do business with." Xingye smiled.
"We can give you a very cheap price." Demeter almost prayed: "Just give you a little bit."
Lin Fan listened and shook his head.
He is indeed the god of agriculture with a simple mind.
How can anyone discuss business with others like this?
Just come up
He said he was in a hurry and just gave him some money. He said he was going to run away and took action quickly.
If they don't delay you for a few days and charge a lot of money, they will be sorry for you.
Lin Fan thought, if Shang Weitian were to do this business, instead of being sincere, he would inform other temples that the price of food has increased this year, whether he wants to buy it or not.
really.
The eldest lady over there smiled: "Yes, yes, but... we are short of funds recently. Let's talk about this matter in a few days."
"Dudududu."
Hang up communication.
Demeter turned pale. .??.
the other side.
In a gorgeous office.
A girl with a graceful temperament and gorgeous clothes put down her communication bracelet, her face no longer showing any trace of laziness or fatigue.
The elder on the side whispered: "Miss, according to our information channels, the God of Agriculture Temple is indeed at war with the Aoki Temple..."
The Star Chamber of Commerce's industries extend in all directions, and the teleportation array business is spread across many temples.
They have information channels that other temples do not have, and sometimes even the joint law enforcement order requires their assistance.
"I know." The girl with the same name as a recently famous Assassin God nodded expressionlessly.
"Then why did Miss..."
"This matter is involved in the power struggle in the God Realm, and is even related to Zeus." The girl carelessly fiddled with the white jade-like abacus, and said lightly: "This endless pastoral was supposed to be reserved for the Aoki Temple... If we really did this
business, we will offend the Aoki Temple."
"Although it also relieves the urgent needs of the Temple of the God of Agriculture, it can gain their favor."
"But the Temple of the God of Agriculture is all running away now... When doing business, you have to take a long-term view, and it is best not to get involved in the power struggle and the grievances of the temple. This is how the Star Chamber of Commerce can rise quickly and stand among the temples.
The essential."
The elder nodded deeply: "Miss educates you."
"Delay her for three days first," the girl said softly: "After three days, you can go there and buy it at 30% off the usual price."
"Ah?" The elder was stunned for a moment: "Didn't you say... that we should take a long-term view and not get involved in power struggles and grievances in the temple?"
"Unless there is great benefit." The girl said calmly: "Business has no bottom line."
"With the Temple of the God of Agriculture, there are almost no temples in the God Realm that have to work hard to grow food. Now that the entire Temple of the God of Agriculture has escaped, there will definitely be a period of drought in the God Realm in the future. When the food reserves in many temples are exhausted, the price of food will soar.
"
"This amount is enough for us to earn tens of millions of divine crystals."
"As for offending the Aoki Temple...it's okay to offend. I feel that Zeus's purpose this time is not just as simple as the Saturn Temple."
"And even from a profit perspective, providing help in times of crisis is the most valuable investment. If the Temple of Saturn can survive this time, it will definitely be grateful to us in the future."
The girl was fiddling with her abacus nonchalantly, but the words she casually uttered were bloody, and the angle was overlooking the entire God Realm.
"Miss, I see you clearly." The elder said with admiration on his face.
In the Temple of Saturn.
Being directly rejected by the Star Chamber of Commerce, Demeter looked ugly.
"It's okay... Although the Star Chamber of Commerce rejected us, some powerful temples are also capable of acquiring them all..."
Demeter dialed the communication again.
Temple of the Earth.
Goddess of the Earth, Gaia.
"My child, what's wrong at this late hour?"
"Mother Goddess." Demeter said urgently: "We are now fighting with the Aoki Temple. I want to escape. The food in the field must be sold at a low price..."
"A fight? It's impossible. You two have always had the best relationship." Gaia, the Mother Earth Goddess, smiled nonchalantly: "Are you kidding me?"
Demeter said quickly: "No, I'm not joking. The situation is very serious now. I..."
The Earth Mother Goddess didn't take it seriously: "It's okay, I'll just tell Qingmu tomorrow. Okay, my child, sleep peacefully."
"Dudududu."
Hang up.
Demeter: "..."
no way.
This mother has always treated her children equally, and even after experiencing the destruction of the Titans, she has never directly intervened in conflicts between her children.
Demeter dialed the communication of the Storm Temple again!
"Do you want to buy food?" Demeter said urgently: "I have a fight with the Aoki Temple, and now we must..."
"You're lying again, how could you possibly start a fight? A few days ago, my child was at the auction and saw Zeus praising you two temples and asking you to continue to love each other." The Lord of Storms laughed: "Let me guess, you
I want to say that you will never farm again in the future. The God Realm will soon be short of food. If you miss this time, you won’t be able to buy food, right?"
"Um...that's it." Demeter was stunned for a moment: "Since you know the seriousness of the matter, why not hurry up..."
"Still pretending. Oh, I understand, it's hunger marketing. You want to increase the price, right? Haha, you God of Agriculture have also learned bad things. I won't be fooled. I still like to buy through the Star Chamber of Commerce. It is formal and reliable. I think.
If you have the ability to raise the price, go directly to the Xingchen Chamber of Commerce to discuss it."
The God of Storms laughed and hung up the communication.
"Dududu..."
Demeter: "???"
are you crazy!
I really want to sell it to you at a low price, but you still won’t buy it, right?
In fact, this was the business environment before the God Realm.
>
Before the emergence of the Star Chamber of Commerce, all major temples almost monopolized the business they were in charge of.
You can almost mark the price however you want.
For example, in the Temple of the Earth, if you wanted to hire an Earth God to build a wall for your temple, you would have to pay the same salary as ten elders of the same rank!
Otherwise, just be obedient and build the wall yourself.
There is nothing that can be done about the many temples. You can't expect one ocean god to build a wall, right? When it comes to building walls, ten ocean gods can't compare to one earth god.
Unlike the lower world, gods possess extremely powerful powers, and the differences in these powers are completely different.
If it were the lower realm and this worker offered a sky-high price, then it would be a big deal to find someone else.
Everyone knows how to build a wall. At most, you can learn it once you learn it.
But that doesn't work in the world of gods. The talents of gods are determined from birth and cannot be learned.
If you want to do something, ten gods who don't have this kind of priesthood can't compare to one god who has the corresponding priesthood.
This leads to the largest monopoly.
The business environment in the God Realm was once in chaos. The prices of fish, food, animal meat, construction, assassination, lighting, and various businesses soared to the sky.
There is nothing we can do about it. After all, if one company raises its price, other companies will have no choice but to follow suit. Otherwise, who will pay for it?
In the end, the Star Chamber of Commerce emerged as a trading platform, uniting many temples and stabilizing the situation. In the end, even some temples that raised prices had to give in, otherwise they would be excluded by many temples.
The entire divine world also became stable from chaos. This period happened to be the time when the Temple of Saturn had a high status. It was the early stage when Zeus defeated Odin and first came to the throne, and the order was unstable.
In this process, the Star Chamber of Commerce also rose with the stability of the God Realm and became a behemoth in the God Realm.
Nowadays, many temples go directly to the Star Chamber of Commerce for transactions. This trading organization has suddenly become a reliable and formal synonym, and even maintains the order of the God Realm.
Demeter can only contact the next buyer.
Beast Taming Temple.
Demeter was smart this time and did not say that she would go to war with the Aoki Temple or that she would run away from the Saturn Temple.
He just said: "I know you need a large amount of grain as feed. I want to sell a large amount of grain at a 50% discount. Do you want it?"
"Oh?" Bemila seemed a little interested: "Okay, how many are there?"
Demeter muttered: "Where are you doing? Why is there the sound of whips? I can't even hear you clearly."
"I'm accompanying the beauty... ahem, I'm trying to tame the mythical beast." After finishing speaking, Bemila covered her communication bracelet, turned to Daji and said: "Beauty, first, stop for a while... and then pump again.
Demeter and I have something to discuss."
Daji nodded and took out the candle: "I'll add this later."
Bemila's eyes were horrified, but seeing Daji's expectant look on her face, she could only grit her teeth and say, "Okay!"
"Okay, now there is no sound interference, we can continue talking." Bemila continued to speak into the microphone.
"You should also be careful when taming animals, don't hit them too hard..." Demeter muttered, and then said: "Thirty million... no, just 20 million divine crystals! A total of three billion tons."
The price is not high.
After all, this is the food output of the entire God of Agriculture Temple. The entire God Realm relies on this food to feed believers. This is also the only way for the Temple of God of Agriculture to earn income. The entire Temple of God of Agriculture relies on selling food to earn some divine crystals to provide to the elders below.
Pay wages.
But Lin Fan was shocked.
This is a terrible number.
This is just one season's output from the Temple of Saturn.
Calculated based on two crops a year, that is half a year's output.
But it is equivalent to four years of grain consumption in Daxia!
But in fact, under the nourishment of the god of agriculture, the speed of crop maturity has increased incredibly, and it is possible to achieve four crops a year!
In other words, the food produced by the God of Agriculture Temple in one year is enough to feed Daxia for sixteen years!
No wonder the world of gods is so prosperous!
Food is always the cornerstone of prosperity.
With such an exaggerated output, it would be strange not to be prosperous!
This further strengthened Lin Fan's determination to capture the Temple of the God of Agriculture. As long as he captured the Temple of the God of Agriculture, Daxia would be invincible in this war!
"Twenty million divine crystals, this is too big. I can't afford it even if I bankrupt the Beast Taming Temple... I have to find the Temple of Power and a few close temples to get it together." As the God of Beast Taming, Bemila obviously considered this.
There are not as many as the previous temples, and he said excitedly: "But the price is indeed right. Let's do this, I will find someone now, and we will pay and deliver the goods tomorrow..."
"Well... maybe not tomorrow." Demeter sounded awkward.
"What do you mean?" Bemila was stunned.
"The harvest hasn't started yet." Demeter whispered: "In this case, you give me the divine crystal first, or the fragments of the divine realm. In short, as long as the price is right, the food in this endless field will be yours."
"Just go back and bring people to harvest."
After all, she was already planning to run away with the gods of agriculture, and there was no way she could stay for another half month to harvest.
"Ah?" Bemila was stunned: "I will give you money and I will harvest it?"
"Do you think I'm a fool? I, the god of beast taming, go to harvest? Do you think too highly of our beast taming skills? I let the thundering tiger harvest the crops? Besides, by the time we finish harvesting, those crops will have been long gone
It’s in ruins! Okay, that’s it, I’ll go find the Star Chamber of Commerce to buy it later.”
"Dududu..."
Hang up again.
Next, Demeter continued to communicate for half an hour, and finally put down the communication bracelet with a pale face.
